Mondays
I kind of like Mondays. I feel like it gives me a chance to piece the house back together after a weekend. No, I don't like the alarm going off at 5:50am, but once we get the girls to school by 7:15, I can get in a cup of coffee in between doing dishes and getting my 2-year-old his breakfast. Then around lunchtime I catch up on sermons from the weekend while I work around the house. (Elevation church and Andy Stanley).
But today I realize I only have 4 Mondays left. Not just because summer is around the corner but because I have decided to Home School next year. Yes I capitalized it, because it's a pretty big deal.
I'm sure we will establish a new Monday routine, but it's definitely going to take some getting used to! I am excited about this change for our family--perhaps the most excited about really connecting with my girls who will be in Second and Fourth grades next year. I do realize it will be a change for me to get used to having them home most of the time. The next few months will be spent setting up the school area, planning our schedule and adapting a better chore/routine. I know it will be different for all of us--we have been in the public school system for 4 years now (and they have had a fabulous experience). Join me in my journey as I adapt to my new Mondays!
What does your Monday routine look like? What do you listen to while doing work around the house? Hope your Monday is going well so far! I'm about to pick up the girls. . .a 7:15 start means a 2:15 dismissal. . .I am glad this break in the day will be on my terms next year. :)
